Scalable UNIX Tools for Clusters
SUT is a collection of standard UNIX utilities like ls, rm, cp, etc. that
are targeted at cluster use. These tools are based on a paper by
William Gropp and
Ewing Lusk entitled
Unix Tools on Massively Parallel Processors. As it stands now,
the tools in the SUT package do not conform to the syntax or semantics of
those described in the paper for various reasons but in many cases, the
current SUT package offers enhancements on the ideas presented in the paper.
If you are using this software, please email the mailing list with success or
bug reports. Thank you!
